Basics of MATLAB and Beyond
|
Description
MATLAB -the tremendously popular computation, numerical analysis, signal processing, data analysis, and graphical software package-allows virtually every scientist and engineer to make better and faster progress. As MATLAB�s world-wide sales approach a half-million with an estimated four million users, it becomes a near necessity that professionals and students have a level of competence in its use. Until now, however, there has been no book that quickly and effectively introduces MATLAB�s capabilities to new users and assists those with more experience down the path toward increasingly sophisticated work.Basics of MATLAB and Beyond is just such a book. Its hands-on, tutorial approach gently takes new users by the hand and leads them to competence in all the fundamentals of MATLAB. Then, with equal effectiveness, it covers the advanced topics that lead to full, creative exploitation of MATLAB's awesome power.
This book arose from notes written for MATLAB training courses run within the Australian Defence Science and Technology Organisation.
The book is in two parts. Each part was originally a two-day course,designed assuming that students were seated at a computer with matlab running.
Part 1 is an introductory course suitable for those with no experience at all with matlab. It is written in a self contained way; if you go through the notes, all the new commands and ideas are explained as they are introduced.
Part 2 is a more advanced course suitable for those who are already familiar with the basics of MATLAB. It covers a variety of topics, some of which you may not be interested in; if so, you should be able to skip that section without detriment to other sections.
With this book, readers will:
Solve more problems with MATLAB-and solve them faster
Create clearer, more beautiful graphics with control over every detail
Create their own MATLAB code
Share their work by exporting data and graphics to other applications
Develop graphical user interfaces
Based on the latest 5.x release, Basics of MATLAB and Beyond supplies both novice and experienced users the tools they need to gain proficiency, increase productivity, and ultimately have more fun with MATLAB. |
